Dear Fedora developers,
there have been a number of examples where an update in a stable branch
brought in new dependencies and in significant numbers. The most recent
case was discussed on this list even today:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/BVUZWJYW2UVO53EZ2G2ALAQPU5PLDJZR/
That discussion was about Rawhide. Not about a stable release.
True, but the issue is the same. New or changed dependencies cause
problems.
Not quite. This only applies to "weak deps".
New "strong deps" or "changed deps" are should to solve problems,
otherwise there would not be any need for changes.
The proposed policy change talks about both rawhide and stable branches.
I consider your proposal to be unnecessary.
Ralf
